A roller coaster August
Hi to all my faithful blog readers. It has been a roller coaster of emotions this month. My MRI in July had brought a new twist to our journey. The radiologist thought there was a small spot on the original tumor sight. My oncologist didn't see it, but to be sure I had another MRI yesterday. They do not see what they thought they saw last month. My report yesterday was a clear scan. We were so very relieved. This month has been one of the most difficult months since my first diagnoses (almost 2 years in Sept). We saw first hand the down word progression of this disease in dear friend's. It's was difficult to see and realize the mirror of my possible future. We have now lost three dear friends in the last 2 months to brain cancer, two of which were diagnosed after me. Watching them, and their families courage, and faith as they left this earth was gut wrenching at first, but became a sense of strength for me as I waited for my next MRI. But through them, God gave me so much strength and grace to continue everyday life . I am sorry to have worried any of you, but I am not sorry to have had your prayers and strength with me this last month. It has meant more then I can ever explain. Once again I have come to more of an understanding of what being alive really means!
God bless and guide all of you in your daily lives. LIVE, LAUGH and LOVE like there is no tomorrow.
I love you all so very much
Sue
